PUNCH AND DIE vFOR ANGLE SMITH WORK.

Application filed February 27, 1920. Serial No. 361,710.,`

Be it known that l, DANIEL Scooter, a subject of the ,King of Great Britain, residing at Maisonneuve, in the Province of Quebec, Canada, have invented certainfnew and useful Improvements inv Punches and Dies for Angle Smith lNork; and I do hereby declare thatthe following isa full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled 'inV the art to which it appertains to make and use the same. f f The present'vinvention has'relation to improvements in punch and dies for angle smith work in connection with stamping machines.

The principal object of the invention is to` provide for the formation of .various angle shapes for ship building and the like and having means for yforming the same at one stroke of,l the plunger carrying the stamp member. ,i

With the aboveand other,l objects view which ywill hereinafter appear as the de-V scription,continues', the invention `consists of the novel features of construction, combinationandformation ofparts as will be hereinafter more fully described andV 4pars ticularly'pointed out in theappended claims.

In the accompanyingdrawings has been' shown a simple y, and preferred form of the invention, it being,however, understood that no limitation isnecessarily made to the precise structural details hereineXhibited, but the right is hereby reserved to any changes, alterations or modifications to which recourse may be [had that come within the scope of ,the .claims ywithoutl depart-ing from l .t-he spirit of the invention `or sacrificing the efficiency ofthe same.

Figure l is a side elevationalvieWf the frontal elevation of Fig- Figures 8 and 9 are perspectiveviews of angle irons `formeel trimming and cutting the shape in Figure 7 onthe dotted lines. i

Referring to the iigures by numerals of reference, l indicates the male member which is secured to the bed 2 of the stamping machine Aor press, by the bolts 3- which pass through the lianges l of the said diel mem- .The malemember `lis preferably a solid. piece ofjmetal, as the samev is subject to extraordinary stress-due` to the pressurey exerted upon` it during the bending operai,

ber and nuts 5.

tion. vThis member l is formed wit-lrupper parallell inclined surfaces 6 and 7, the latter surface which is. the face,.being uniplanar and surmounted by an integral shaping pro. jection 8. The upper surface of the iprio-y jection is ushfwith. the surface 6and its sides 9, 10 extend! froman apex lltowards 8 extends upwardly the greater part ofthe length ofthe lower` surface 7 and its. apex `is in the plane o f the topy ofthe die.

The stamping or female" element 1,2.which is associated withthe die memberlis con-1 nected by bolts lSto the plunger 14 and in ythis connectionv it mayl be stated thatthe said plunger may Vbe actuated vin conjunc tion with the piston of a steam,` air or hy-V draulic press. i .1 v y This stampingA element is formedwitha lower angular surfact-zf?CL to coincide with the surface?. Avlrecess l16-` is formed in the 9, 10 yof the projection 8. i .v i

When a relatively*wide sheet of metal is placed upon 'thelvmalez diejl, asf-illustrated y f, in Figure 1, due to the configuration of therl v -j projectionwith respecttolthe ,recess 161.- i ff of the plunger element, and pressure is applied, the metal is reduced to the form of an angle plate 20. asshown in Figure 7.

If the plate 20 is trimmed and cut along the dotted lines 21, an angle iron 22 and a corner piece 23 are f0rmedboth of which have distinct and specific uses in various arts. Either of these pieces may be formed the sides of the member .11.` The projection.U i.

A :if surface 'fory ,receiving thelv-.projectionj l3jy v"The surface 19 is parallel Awith aplanel j passed through the limits 9', 10 of the sidesl independently by using a blank of proper f length and applying it to one or another' part of the die, according to the nature of the product desired. It will thus be seen that this singlev die has the property of making et least three diffrent shapes,

Having thus fully described the invention, what l claim as new and desire to protect by Letters Patent is l. A pair of dies comprising a male andV said members being iiniplanar and inclined and havinga projection thereon, the face of the other die being inclined to coact with the first named face and having a recess formed therein congruent with the projection and adapted to' receive the same.

8. A pair of dies comprising a male and a female die member, the face of one of said members being inclined and having ay projeetion thereon, the whole face of the projectioii'being parallel to the face of the die, and the face of the other die member'being inclined to coact with the first named face and having a recess'formedtherein fcongru# ent with the projection and adapted to receive the same.

el. A pair of dies comprising a male and a female die member, the face rof 'one of said members being inclined and having a projection thereon,fthe whole face of the projection being parallel to the face of the die and its sides being-angular to said face, the

face of the other die member being inclined to coact with the first named face and having i a recess formed therein congruent with the vprojection and adapted to receive the same.

5. A pair of dies comprising a male and a female die member, the face of one of said members being formed with a projection thereon, the sides of which projection diverge 'f towards the sides of the die member and converge to a straight line, the face of the other memberA being adapted to coact with the first named face and having a recess formed therein congruent with the projection `and'adapted to receive the same.

6. A pair of dies comprising a male and a female diev member, the face yof one of said members being formed' with a projection thereon, the sides of which proj ection'extend hand.,

towards the sides of the die member and converge to a straight line, perpendicular to 4 said face, the face of the other member being adapted vto coact with the first named face and having ay recess formed therein'congruent with the projection and adapted to receive" the same.

7. A pair of dies comprising a male and a female die member, Vvthefaceof one of said members being uniplanar and inclined and formed with a projection, the sides" ofwhicli" projection are angular to said face and c onvergent towards eachother, the vface of the other member being inclined tov4 'coact with' the first'named face and having a recess formed therein for receiving the projection.

8. A pair of dies comprisinga male and a female die member, the 'face of one of said members being uniplanar and inclined. and formed with a projection, the sides of which female die member, the face of :one of said' members being uniplana-r andinclinedand formed with 'a projection having `an apex, the

sides of which projection are angular tosaid face and convergent'toward'each other, the apex of the projection being spaced from the the first named face :and having a' recess formed therein for `receiving theprojection. j

10. A pair of dies comprisingla male and a female die member, the facet oflone of said members being uniplanar and inclined and i formed with a projection Vhaving an' apex,

the sides of rwhich ,projection are angular'to said face and convergenttoward each other, and the face of which is parallel. to said die face, the apex of the`projection'being spaced from the edges of said inclined face, the 'facet of the other memberbeingjinclined'to coact with the first named face and having -a recess formed therein for receiving the projection.`

In witness whereoflhave hereunto'set my DANIEL Scopi-1ER,
